Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman gave one of the top performances of the night Monday on the premiere episode of “Dancing with the Stars: Athletes.”
Norman and his dance partner, Sharna Burgess, danced a cha cha to “Finesse” by Bruno Mars and received a combined judges’ score of 24 out of 30. Judge Bruno Tonioli called Norman “the one to watch” in the athletes-only season of the long-running dance competition program.
Norman and seven other athletes advanced, while former Major League Baseball outfielder Johnny Damon and snowboarder Jamie Anderson were voted out on night one.
